Condition

The colours are fairly accurate in the catalogue illustration, although the overall contrast is more important in the original. The work is in very good condition and colours are a little bit faded but the contrast is still very important. The work is glued to the mount. One pin hole is visible upon very close inpection at each of the two upper corners of the sheet.
